You do not recall correctly.

Services are ca. 18% of Apple’s revenue, after years of huge spending and tons of dedicated effort to grow this segment. The fact that it is as high as a fifth is itself a monumental feat.

Hardware sales of the iPhone alone, excluding all computers, AirPods, and iPads, is over 40%.

I suspect the profit split is biased more towards services than the revenue split.

This is less meaningful when the vast majority of the services are only sold to people using their hardware.
